Happy Thanksgiving (late)!
I'm just a little behind - sorry. Between the new job, helping a friend sort through some business issues (ugh), doing a serious clean-out of our clothes closet (more ugh), and the Thanksgiving holiday (food and shopping!), I just haven't had enough energy to collect any thoughts together let alone write anything.
I have been sweetly and gently reminded (by more than one person) that this blog is supposed to be about KK - not about my mid-life "a few wrinkles can't stop me from being a rocker girl" crisis. So I will do my best to avoid blogging about Bon Jovi, Motley Crue, or even Def Leppard. Oh my goodness - can I just say that nothing can get me through a workout at the gym like listening to Def Leppard? Ahem. Sorry.
I will also try to be better about posting photos, because I'm told a post without photos doesn't count. : )
KK is the most adorable little devil these days. Somehow she can make me crack up and get frustrated all at the same time. Like this weekend when she took a crayon to the bar stools, ottoman, and front window panes. The crayon on the window is still there and I pointed it out to her today. "KK, look - you don't color on the windows. That is not okay and now Mommy has to clean it off." To which she replied, "It's beeeaoooootiful!" Awww, how sweet.
About a week ago we got to babysit baby Addy for the first time! She is the sweetest, most precious little girl! KK loved it almost as much as me. She was very good and kept her devilishness at bay. She talked to Addy in a cute little baby voice and would pat her gently. She even took time to teach Addy all about Minnie M0use! (See the little tiny baby on the right? That's Addy. The big humongous child on the left? That would be KK. I swear it was only yesterday when SHE only weighed ten pounds!)
We had a very nice and low-key Thanksgiving weekend. Grandma M came to visit for a couple of days. We celebrated Grandma's birthday to get the weekend started. KK tried to eat her birthday brownie before the candle was even blown out!
On Thanksgiving Day KK ran her first race with Daddy. Since he still can't run with his bad ankle, he did the children's run with her instead. Grandma and I stayed home and got dinner started so we didn't get to watch, but it sounded like she enjoyed it. Even though she made Daddy carry her halfway through. She may be a little devil, but she's no dummy! : )
We hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving!

KK is quite the artist!
Thanks for posting the cute pictures of her and Addy! Thanks again for babysitting. You are a wonderful friend!
Side note: I like hearing about your crushes on 80s rock icons! :)

Uh oh - Grandma Bobbie is putting the pressure on, ha ha! KK is adorable as always, I can't believe how big our toddlers are getting.
And for the record, I like the hair band posts too! Of course, I was right there w/you for many of the experiences, ha ha....

A friend of mine suggested saving the crayon marks that are in an inconspicuous location. It's fun to look back and remember. Especially when they get to be 10 and are talking back to you. :)
How wise to have taken photos, though. Evidence to hold against her in the future, perhaps? :)
It is so cute that she is so good with little Addy. It is funny when you think of your baby as so little and then you see her next to a new baby and see just how big she has grown!
